the manufacturers would pay greater atten-
ton to the real and fancied wants and require
ments of the public. The large leather
covered wooden trunks for ladies, known as
Saratoga trunks, would be greatly in demand
if they were made great deal lighter. They
should be made of very tough, thin wood, and
the mountings should be of steel or brass, in
stead of malleable iron. The inner embellsh-
ments, made generally of striped paper in gay
colors, or old fashion plates should be avoided.
The number of boxes, drawers, and compart-
ments they usually contain, and which only
increase the weight Of trunks and make them
more expensive. may safely be left out. There
should be only two loose inside trays with an
adjustable or movable compartment under
meath for bonnets, and this would be sufficient.
The above remarks apply to certain extent
also to solid leather trunks, in which much
larger business might be done if the foregoing
and following hints were needed Gentle
men here detest, and will not pur-
chase and travel about with trunks stuck,

however, is of more Importance is that so

one trial The importation of, and trade in,
American travelling bags, is comparatively in
its infancy, but capable of considerable devel-
opment. The makers of them must chiefly
have an eye to the necessity that inside fur
nishings comport, in every respect with the
exterior of the respective article; and that
generally frst-rate materials are used in their
manufacture. It is only few days ago that

HOSEA BIaELoW's FALSE PRETENsE.

That was queer proceeding on the part of
James Russell Lowell in springing lecture
IN purely literary topic upon his Chicago
audience which had assembled to hear an
address upon American Politics." From the
remarks made by General Smith in introduc-
ing the speaker it appears that he had not
been notified of the intended change of pro.
yramme, and was under the impression that

might have been regarded as a confidence
game, but on the part of the ex-minister to
England it is probably to be looked upon as
an abnormal development of the diplomatic
spirit. He has strong opinions on political
subjects-at least, that is what he says--but
he isn't going to hurt any ones feelings and
arouse animosity by telling what they are.
Of course, it will not do to say that
Mr.. Lowell lacks the courage Of his convic-
tons, or to suspect him of cherishing political
aspirations that might be injured by prema-
ture expressions Of opinion on public matters;
but it is not too much to venture the assertion
that he was mistaken in thinking his utter
ances would arouse ilI-feeling and stir up
strife. His speech would have been listened
to with attention and respect as the views Of
man of books, but his career in England
and his course subsequently deprive him of
any claims to craftsmanship and his words
of the weight which might once have be-
longed to them. The Chicago people were,
after all, probably as greatly edited by the
dissertation on Richard the Third as they
would have been by a mugwumpian Grafton,
even though they were brought to hear it by
false pretenses

THE SOLDIERS OF '64.

According to General Bragg, the men who
entered the Union army in 1864 are to be
classed as scoundrels, vagabonds, the scum of
the earth and mercenary hirelings. Never
was a more disgraceful SANDER uttered I'M
doubtedly there were rascals and adventures
among the soldiers from the first year of the
war to the last, and in the later months Of
that anxious period bounty jumpers disgraced
son with the hundreds of thousands of honest,
earnest patriots in the ranks were few and far
between In any case, their careers are of
record, and any of them who did aught to in
jure or dis credit their country are effectually
debarred from profting by any existing or
proposed pension law. General Bragg, in his
blind and narrow prejudice against men who
were paid bounties as q price OF their enlist
ment, condemns many worthy veterans. 1t
is no dishonor to any soldier that he accepted
the bounties given by the government. In a
great majority of cases the money offered was
not so much an inducement as means. Com
paratively few men are 80 situated as to be
superior to all financial consideration; even
General Bragg must have been forced to gov
ern his movements by them at times-and it
is no impugnment of the patriotism of any
soldier to say that he was paida bounty. Many
man who did his country good service
could not see his way clear to leave his family
until the bounty enabled him to provide for
them. Those who enlisted in the first year
of the war, and for whom General Bragg pro-
fesses the highest regard, did not receive these
rewards, it is true; but, possibly, had they
foIeseen the hardships that lay before them,
their eager patriotism might have bden some
what checked It's not improbable, too, that
bad generous government seen fit to offer
such inducements, the "boys of '61" would
have accepted them, as we'll as those Of ga.
General Bragg, in his wholesale character
ization of the later recruits as scoundrels,
ignores the fact that among them were num-
bers Of young men who had but just reached
the age Oh enlistment ana VINO entered the
ranks with as much enthusiasm and love of
country as had their brothers three years be-
fore. He forgets, too, that among those who
served Through the war; were some who did
not consider it disgraceful or "scoundrelly7t to
benefit by bounty on their re-enlistment
How do these veterans enjoy being con-
lemned and classed az scum by a man who
was elected to represent the people in State
for which they fought AS a matter of fact,
an enlistment in the Union army in 1864
when all the glamour which once surrounded
army life had vanished, when the chance Of
military glory was seen to be slight, and dan
ger was as longer disguised by the enthusiast
tic praise that greeted and cheered the first
200; when to many respondent souls the
war seemed far from its close-then it was
that enlistment showed nerve, and courage
and determination. The slur cast upon the
recruits of that year is q shameful one
